Where to buy: Wheel Spacers!?


Mallard

Recommended Posts

I've searched far and wide to find some wheel spacers for my car and am coming up dry. Does anyone know a good place to buy some? H&R doesn't make any that fit my car and the ones summit carries are truck wheel spacers that make it look like I have a fake brake disk behind my stock wheel.

 

OR: Can someone here make me some wheel spacers?

 

I need:

10 mm think (might need 12 mm, but don't want to roll fenders for 15mm)

67.1 mm hub center diameter

5 x 114.3 mm lug stud circle diameter

IPS and Jegs won't have them. I have been searcing for months, including the Jegs web site. The only one's I know of that will work are the H&R's and they will cost me about $200 and be 5 mm too wide. Then I'd either have to turn them down or roll my fenders and they still might rub. I was hoping someone with some equipment and/or time would offer to make them for cheaper. For the price it would cost me to run the H&R's I might as well spend an extra $200 and get a third set of wheels. I'd rather not do that since my kitchen already looks like a garage.

Get some metal 'cylinders/disk' from McMaster Carr and have a (any) machine shop do their thing. As long as you don't feel like you need hub centric this should be very easy for them to do and will be much cheaper than $200+some machine work.

 

If you need hub centric that's a different story. Any decent machine shop can still do them but they might want a drawing and/or more money to sketch something up for you. I can almost assume you know how to use some sort of CAD program though so just draw some up if that's the case. Even if you do this your still looking at <$200 for everything.

The guy that runs wheelspacer.com is a racing legend and is cool as shit. He'll contact you the day you write a price request and he will custom make anything you need for a great price.

 

 

I have used this guy several times for customer vehicles and he is very good. He is also kinda exspensive but he will make anything you need him to.
